I guess the interest being you can use a more “modern” rifle during the primitive deer hunting season. To each his own Thats me, I hunt and fish for meat. As long as I can put two to three deer in the freezer every year we eat well all year, we hardly ever eat beef. I can cook venison and you can't tell the difference. I all so do my own processing so I can cut, grind, and make steaks. My longest kill with a muzzleloader is 90 paces with a 50cal. Most of the deer I use to take came from a 30-30. I like hunting with a 30-30 most because they don't tar up the meat as bad. Here in TN we have white tail deer, small lucky to get does over 75lbs, giving about 40lbs of meat. OH! yes I hunt does mostly, tender meat
